You need the install disk unfortunately.
One option to consider is downloading MSFT's Office 2007 beta program and installing XL 2007, which also has Solver. You have to pay a nominal fee of $5 or so to download it, and the software expires in Feb 2007, by which time you should get your Office 2003 install disk. You can save XL files made in XL 2007 in XL 03 format. Circuitous, but it will give you the capabilities you need. Dave -- Brevity is the soul of wit. "Steph" wrote: Please help!

Another possibility is that downloading XL 2007 will allow you to associate
Solver with XL 2003. I don't know if that's possible, but it's worth investigating. Dave -- Brevity is the soul of wit. "Steph" wrote: Please help!

Steph -
You do need a disk to install Solver, but you should be able to use anyone's disk that is the same version of Office/Excel 2003 as your original installation. Perhaps a colleague has such a disk. - Mike http://www.mikemiddleton.com "Steph" wrote in message ... Please help!
